How we approach it

Most grey decks aren’t dead. They just need the top layer taken off and a good stain.

Questions people ask

Deck & fence staining, answered.

★★★★★
“Paul’s team was professional, thorough, responsive, and very hard working. They had some challenging tasks ahead of them: painting dark, intricate wood pieces a much lighter colour, repairing plaster walls, and removing wallpaper and patching and sanding the walls before painting. They ensured all surfaces were properly prepared, thus ensuring superior results. We were very pleased with the transformation of the family home.”

How often should a deck be stained in Ontario?

It depends on sun exposure, foot traffic and the product used. Horizontal surfaces wear faster than railings. Paul can tell you what to expect for your deck.

When is the best time to stain a deck?

Warm, dry stretches from late spring to early fall, with no rain in the forecast for a day or two after.
